Caught between friendship and relationship

Tagged as: Dating, Friends<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (31 December 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 2 January 2011)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

This girl had a crush on my for a while, about a month and a half I think. I fell for her, and by the time I told her about it, she said she said I was the closest person to her, and decided we should stay friends because she was really afraid that would change.

Basically, we have strong feelings for each other, but she enjoys being with me so much, she is afraid that being bf and gf will take that away. I know that would never happen; I am just not like that. But I feel that her past experience with a bf who cheated on her is effecting the decision.

We still talk like great friends, but she is uncomfortable being around me, because that just reasserts our feelings for each other, and thus makes it harder to stay friends.

I don't like this akwardness- I have no problem being friends with her, I'll get over her, but as of now we talk, get closer, and she recoils back for a while and it all repeats. From here we know we can be friends or more. I simply don't like being caught between the two back and forth- any advice?
